Cosmetic Surgery, Epidural And Twilight Anesthesia. History Of Bulimia. Risk Factors In Taking Anesthesia?
I have a past history of bulimia ... miraculously.. I ve been lucky to never have suffered any major complications from it... I work out.. I run... and I seem to be in good health... I am having cosmetic surgery next week... where I will have an epidural and a twilight anethesia... having a history of bulimia.. does it put me at risk with the anesthesia?

Hello.
Thanks for writing to us.
A history of bulimia is not likely to affect the epidural anaesthesia you will be put under. Please do not worry and be relaxed. You are not at any increased risk due to this.
I hope this information has been both informative and helpful for you.
